On Size Escalation
Today, another person ran into problems with the upload size limit on the site. If you tried to upload a picture larger than 2MB, not only would the upload fail, but the site would give you a rather useless error about the file being missing. Sheer idiocy. So I increased that maximum image size to 4MB.
A bit of perspective: For the first few years of this site's existence I was hosting it off of my AOL account. The entire site fit into the 2 megabytes of web space that AOL provided. Today, the total footprint of the site (CMS, image files, database, etc.) is almost 2 gigabytes.
If this trend continues, then by 2026 I should have about 2 terabytes of inflation media. :)
